2nd phase of engg. counselling after Dasara
The Hindu
It will be done only after the two phases of JEE counselling
The second phase of engineering counselling will begin only after Dasara, as officials are waiting for the counselling of students into NITs and IITs to begin first.
“We will start the second phase of counselling only after at least two phases of JEE counselling are completed so that the seats are not wasted in the top colleges here,” a senior official said. Lot of students, particularly those in the top 2,000 ranks in EAMCET, leave the allotted colleges once JEE counselling begins. Most of these students get into some course in NITs or IITs.
It makes sense to conduct second phase only after minimum two phases are over. Seats vacated by those opting for NITs and IITs would be open for candidates preferring local engineering colleges. The sliding in the second phase helps them to opt for a better college or the choice of their course.
